MajorLink was involved in the new Star Fox production!
I can't even elaborate how well deserved that is! 👏🏽 How could the lad behind the brilliant narrative of Hero's Purpose not being recognised by the industry?
Fair play to him for being in one of the best franchisees by Nintendo! ✨
MAJORLINK JUST DROPPED THE TEASER FOR A HERO’ES PURPOSE PT. 6🥰🥰
I’M HERE TALK ABOUT THIS PART SPECIFICALLY
SO SO SO
The first iteration of Link and Ganondorf is Time and his respective Ganon. The second is Wind, third is Twilight, last is Sky with Demise.
Now, this is definitely my favorite part of the entire teaser because the music and the visuals tie in SO perfectly it’s intoxicating and I’ve replayed the same 15 seconds so many times-
Anyway, what I came here to post about isn’t about the music, but the visuals and what went through my head while I watched it other then HOLY FUCK
My first observation is that Time and Wind are moving back, but Twilight and Sky are moving forward.
Now, the first thing that came to me was that they were kids when they fought Ganondorf, so maybe that was why. They were moving back because they were scared. Which could easily be the the reason.
But then you see how Time and Wind are positioned. Time’s footing looks absolutely terrible, like he’s seconds from falling on his butt. Like he was running backwards. Another thing is, Time has his shield out, but the only thing for him to block is Ganondorf’s hand that seems to be reaching for the Master Sword.
Wind looks kinda like the 🤺 (fencing) emoji. Almost like he’s trying to shoo away Ganondorf with his sword. And Wind has two swords coming for him, yet his shield is behind him. This could be a result of massive impact on the shield before the clip, but maybe it’s not.
I actually just rewatched the clip and realized that Wind is blocking one of Ganon’s swords with his sword, but I still don’t know why his shield is behind him. Plus, he still looks like he’s being effortlessly pushed back🥲
Now I wanna talk about Twilight and Sky.
Twilight looks ready here. Like he’s been training for this moment his entire life. His sword and shield seem to be ready for use and the guy is just steady. I don’t have much to say about him. However, Twilight’s face is definitely the clearest and it looks like his eyebrows are furrowed. Maybe in concentration. Maybe in anger. I’m not sure. It also sort of looks like his teeth are gritted.
Sky’s face may be the most clouded over, but I could easily be wrong and it could be Wind’s, but he also looks ready. Maybe because he was actually trained, and that may just be a consant with Twilight and Sky.
Twilight was trained by Time while he was the Hero’s Shade
Sky was trained in a whole academy for knights
Time doesn’t really get taught how to fight(I think)
Wind gets taught how to fight breifly
Sky has had years of training. And maybe Twilight didn’t have those years, he had the help of, not only someone who was in his shoes, but his training is throughout the game, not just a side-quest you do it ten minutes.
